I have to enter a Ctrl-D after the closing brace before rc actually
registers. Might be significant.

'here' documents in nested rc constructs have to
come after the nest.
i.e., change
> {

to
{
cat <<EOF
}
hi there
EOF

Byron's version prints the right thing. We could port that to Plan 9. :-)

Hi,
What should be the correct output for this rc fragment?
{
cat <<EOF
hi there
EOF
}
I'm getting
hi: file does not exist
EOF: file does not exist
Is there a fix for this in the ftp site?
